THE DOWNEY FAIR.

gramme for To-day.
The fourth annual fair of the Los
Angeles County Agricultural Associa-
ton, now in progre. at Downey City,
is attracting considerable attention
not only from residents, but from Wis.,
itors from the North and East. Yes
| terday's session was very largely at
tended and the exhibits were critically
examined by the many visitors. They
found that the products of this section
of the country, as represented at the
fair, will compare more than favorably
with the display made elsewhere. An
attempt to describe the articles on
exhibition would be almost impossi-
BILE, so great is their excellence. The
best of everything raised in this coun-
ty is to be seen on the tables, and
nothing is lacking which might add to
the attractiveness of the fair or give
visitors correct idea of the wealth OF
this part of the State.
Following is complete list Of the
